CloneID: Sb#15
Antigen Long Description: This clone was originally isolated in a form of a synthetic nanobody (sybody) via a 'target swap' selection procedure against RBD-vYFP using ribosomal display and against RBD-Fc fusion during phage display rounds.
Buffer Composition: PBS only.
Uniprot Accession No.: P0DTC2
Specificity Statement: This antibody recognizes and binds the SARS CoV 2 C-terminal receptor binding domain (RBD) located in the extracellular portion of the spike protein.
Application Notes (Clone): This antibody is recommended for detection of SARS CoV 2 or 2019-nCoV. Its high specificity to the novel coronavirus was confirmed via ELISA testing (Walter et al., 2020). Furthermore, grating-coupled interferometry demonstrated that this antibody binds the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein with high affinity (Walter et al., 2020). Subsequent testing showed that this clone exhibits exceptionally strong inhibition of binding of SARS-Cov-2 RBD to hACE2, which is the receptor for the virus (signal of RBD association with hACE2 decreased over 90%) (Walter et al., 2020). This clone binds to a non-overlapping epitope relative to S#68 (Ab02017) what can be used in develoepment of anti-Covid-19 therapuetics granting together increased avidity to the spike protein (Walter et al., 2020).
